She is remembered as a kind soul, who was passionate about country music, social media, her animals and providing love to her large family. With a proud smile on her face, Dorothy always enjoyed her grandchildren or great-grandchildren sitting with her. She loved her family. Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were her heart and soul. She couldn’t stop beaming with pure joy and happiness when they were around.
